The eighth of the eighth in 2008

Today was the eighth of the eighth in 2008. It is considered a lucky day by many. There were a few weddings in Bendigo today. One was in the Uniting Church next door to where i work. The bridesmaids were wearing dresses with bare tops so they must have been freezing. I started to watch the opening ceremony of the Olympic games but i got bored and watched a DVD instead.

Thursday the 7th

I have got the bugs sorted out with the report system. It was a good productive day. BUCO has decided to install a cable network, not a wireless network as the wireless is too easily accessible by others.

A pain in the back on cold wednesday

When i woke up today all the windows were misted up. It had been a really cold night. I did not have to go to work today. I had this back pain and soreness that is bothering me. I rode the bike for about ten minutes and that seemed to clear the pain up a bit.

We held the Shiraz club at Kevin Furness's house again. We met in the shed where we shared some of Kevin's latest wines. There were six guys present including Manny and Fraser. We did not leave until late in the evening as were having such good fellowship. Rod Geri was not there as he was sick, so there were no egg sandwiches, which i missed. We prayed for each other and prayed for the wine, so it was a very spiritual night.

A busy reporting day

I have begun to get the reports sorted out at work. People needed to know just how much we gave out during July and how many people did we serve. I was able to get a few reports together to show them, the correct figures. Access 2007 has some fabulous new features.

Nothing much happened today....

Nothing much happened today except that a meeting at BEST at 4.00 pm was cancelled. Which i was glad about.

An interesting sunday

I walked up to church today but when i got there i found out that Fusion had taken over the service and where just playing games with the kids so i walked home and did not hang around. I later went to the computer swap meet in Mundy st. I bought a copy of Adobe Illustrator for $5, a full working copy of Photoimpact 12 for $10. It was a good bargain i felt. Desmond came over in the evening to tell me he had some contract work with the schools.

End of the working fortnight

Today was the end of the working fortnight. During the previous night it rained very heavily, so heavily it woke me up and i could not get back to sleep. As a result, i felt very tired towards the end of the day. I managed to get a problem sorted out with my report system. In the evening i bought a 12 inch subway for dinner, and then hired "Beowulf" the movie. It was excellent. Best i have seen yet.
